this neighborhood is swelling every day, but
still we have Republicans among US who say
the Democratic administration is adverse to
the interests of the soldier. For near quar-

ing to the Republican administration for
pensions and their cry was in vain, and it
now remains for Democratic administra-
tiqp to do them justice, and right we'll is the

new pensions issued daily will testify. The
Democrats no friend of the soldier, bah.

On account of the many terrible accidents
which have occurred on the railroads recent
ly, people are being put upon their guard and
are anxious concerning their safety while
travelling upon the cars. Therefore, there is
much comment concerning the 'spile' bridge
on the Wabash at this point, and many look
upon the structure as unsafe, and wonder
why the officers of the road do not replace it
with a more substantial structure. The Off
cials of the Wabash are exceedingly care ful
concerning the safety of their passengers and
but few accidents occur upon the line, bot we
would call their especial attention to the
above bridge, with hope that it may be
thoroughly tested as to its safety.

THE extreme fairness of the Virginia
election was beautifully illustrated In Nan
semond county. Nansemond, Isle of
Wight, and Southampton form senatorial
district. The election law directs the
election boards of the counties TO meet two
days after the election and canvass the
returns from the precincts. 1t allows the
board to adjourn for cause to some day
or from day to day, within FIVE days after
the election The board In Nansemond,
composed of FIVE members, met on Thurs.
day, the 10th instant, the proper time, as
the election was held on Tuesday, and
after canvasslng the vote found aud
returned $50 majority for Brown, the
regular Republican candidate, forwarded
the abstract to the secretary OF state
and adjourned sine die. Without no
tice to any one, after the board had
legally ceased to exist, having discharged
all its functions, and after the time for any
legal meeting had expired, three Demo-
cratic members OF the board met on
the 10th instant, made recanvass
Of the precinct returns, and sent sup
Elementary abstract to the secretary
of state, by which Mr.. Causey, an 1ndepen-
dent Republican, who was rejected by the
senatorial Republican convention, because
OF certain acts done In the late legislature,
received the certificate. OF course all this
is without authority Of law, and au outrage
upon the voters Of Nansemond county. It
Ia about as fair as could be expected from
